Found all this Vintage at a Yard Sale!

[@lindahind2205]

Beautiful clothing! When I started thrifting 40 years ago (gulp!) the shops were filled with wonderful dressing gowns, smoking jackets and dresses etc. from the 30's, 40's, and 50's. Wish I'd purchased everything I saw. Still buy the occasional piece (a Chanel blazer) that will never fit.....can't resist!

[@Androgynary]

Linda Hind wow, I would love to have experienced thrift stores back in the day!

[@smallfootprint2961]

@@Androgynary ... I remember when they went from 2nd hand stores to "Vintage Clothing Stores." My kids had been to the beach, and came home telling me about a 'Vintage Clothing Store" on Venice Beach called The Aardvark. Most of us who grew up with these clothes, were glad to move beyond them, but the kids were snatching them up like crazy. Now, they're hard to find.

[@carolynsimone8647]

Makes me think of my mother...she made all 6 of us girls, clothing...thank you for the memory

[@faysalkus1083]

The lady who owned those clothing had class. I was born in 1952 and making clothes was the only way to have what you wanted. Love them all. I wish we could start dressing more classy again.

[@klio1212]

Amen to that. When I dress up a bit, everyone is " are you going out to dinner?"

[@RMBlake007]

Fay and kilo1212....go for it. I refuse to wear sweats, t-shirts and jeans evey where. People used to ask me if I was "going out" now they just tell me what a classy dresser I am. It took me a little time to get "un self conscious", but now that I'm over 50, I say life is too short to not wear great clothes. I love thrift store shopping and I receive compliments on my outfits frequently. If you have the desire to start dressing classy...just DO IT. You never know, you might start something in your area. That's how trends start....with ONE person.

[@brendakennedy9183]

I would definitely dry clean most of the mote elaborate clothing and then each time you wear them maybe be once ever 6the wear or once in the spring and once I'm the fall hang them outside on the rack,to,air out They do mot need to be washed alot. Take the shoulder pads out if you don't like them,but I thought they really gave you a nicer shape. It's worth it to find an old seamstress who does her work from home to help you with the ones that are too large. And I highly recommend " Grandma's attic' which you can find on Wal-Mart checkout sections yo get rid of those deeper stains. If you take your chance at washing, hand wash and hang to dry, cold water. Feel free to contact me if I can help you more.

[@woodyjade9097]

What a wonderful haul,,,,,, I think a modeling shoot is in order. Would love to see you in some vintage clothes.

[@Buttercupgirlify]

Please make video when you try them on

[@fastfred95]

I'm 71 years old, so I remember well my mom and grandma wearing clothes like those in the 50's & 60's. They each made their own clothes, using mainly Butterick patterns. Watching this video was like watching episodes of Mad Men! :)

[@holly5791]

The dark blue dress is actually velvet. Velour came on the scene in the 1970’s. The first pink sheer piece that was hanging over the other pink is actually lingerie. It would have been a bed jacket, the gold quilted type jacket, also bed jacket. The dress with the really large collar, probably early to mid 50’s, it buttoned all down the front. I’ve seen pics of my mom, when I was small, mid 50’s, wearing dresses like that. Oh buttons, they were beautiful in the past, way past. They are so generic today. I have buttons from years past, that are so unique. Any questions that you have about cleaning, I would definitely check with a dry cleaner. The velvet is definitely ‘dry clean only’. I really enjoyed seeing all that clothing. My grandmother was a professional seamstress and my mother was an awesome home seamstress, too. At one time, I made a lot of my own clothing. I had good teachers and I just loved being able to make something like no one else would have. Quite a find you have made! The pins...icing on the cake! 😊👍🏻👗

[@PaperandMoose]

I once tried to make my own curtains... let's just say, if I had a slanted window they would have been great! Haha. My grandmother's sisters all were amazing with sewing, knitting, seamstress work. I try my best, but it just doesn't work for me. I can only appreciate the hard work put into making one's own clothes and hope for the chance to find more clothes like these! And I agree, the pins were a nice surprise!

[@therobinmasterstheory1636]

I thought that was velvet too....as soon as she held it up I could hear the song "She wore Blue Velvet" playing in my head....now it's stuck there. lol :)

[@holly5791]

TheRobinMasters Theory I actually wore baby blue velvet to my prom in high school. My grandmother made the formal and it was the Juliet style...1971. Would you believe that while I was getting ready to go to the prom, I was listening to an oldies station and they played Bobby Vinton singing, “She Wore Blue Velvet”?

[@cabinlifeatedensprings1710]

I love homemade clothes! My mother and grandmother made my clothes when I was a child. It’s hard to find handmade clothes. It is your lucky day. They are beautiful! I have been using a fabric spray I found at Tuesday morning. If you have a Tuesday morning store check out there scented fabric sprays. The green outfit definitely needs to go to the cleaner. But most could be washed in cold water on the gentle cycle, turn inside out. Hang dry. Iron with light starch. I think you will look so cute in these clothes especially the green plaid with big bow. The 60 styles are my favorite. I remember my mother wearing dresses back then. Love that style. I wish I could sew like that too. I have a machine and I made a few Halloween costumes , some curtains. I’m not very good at it. My grandmother was a seamstress. She used to sew for ladies in our community . They all came to her to have dresses made. And that’s how she contributed to the household. So she was my babysitter and to keep me occupied she would give me a needle and thread with fabric scraps. By the age of three I made Barbie clothes by hand. I also played with jars of buttons. Life was so different back then. So simple. Less stress. Enjoy all your beautiful clothes. You could sell one piece and make your money back and then some. God bless, Leslye

What an amazing, beautiful, unique, and mother of all vintage clothes finds. I'm so happy you were able to rescue clothing that might have otherwise been tossed aside.

[@justjean222]

My advice is to have them professionally dry cleaned and have them mark any special concerns (staining, etc.) For the amount you payed for them, it would be totally worth the expense. Love seeing your enthusiasm! You need to go back and knock on their door and leave your name and number just in case they decide to do anymore attic cleaning. Tell them you are going to wear the clothes or even show up wearing one. Who knows where that will lead, because next time they might just throw items in the trash! Congratulations on your wonderful finds!❤️

[@TheVintageBumbleBee]

Wearing a dress to the door is exactly what I would do!

[@melanimeyer6085]

And return the badge. It's probably family and they'd want to keep it

[@janesickler5497]

I've worked at a few dry cleaners....some may not accept the items for dry cleaning because of age...they are afraid that the item may deteriorate during cleaning. Probably best to hand wash and use some Oxiclean and Woolite...some things that say dry clean can be hand washed.

[@lydialangfordjoiner765]

Sometimes you can dye the stained things. I’m so glad that these clothes went to someone who appreciates them. I think they are amazing! She had great taste, too, as you do!

Your joy in these items probably made their day too. Nice to pass things on to those who truly appreciate them and not just for resale. Have photos of my grandmother from the 1950s all dolled up even for kids birthday parties wearing outfits like these. Echo what a few others have said about the sun and line drying being great for stains.

What an amazing haul! They are pieces of history. I'm envious they are beautiful. You looked amazing in the green jacket with the fur. I hope we get a chance to see you in them. You can remove shoulder pads if there's anything you really like. I'd take some to the cleaners if they are wool but a gentle wool wash should be ok for the rest of them. The mould can be treated with a cap full of white vinegar in warm water, then wash on a gentle wash. Thank you for sharing x

[@robertaglass]

So touching. All those beautiful clothes made with such care and attention to detail. And so many fit you perfectly. That coat with the shoulder pads and the horse pin fits you like a dream. Do not fear the shoulder pads! The 1940s shoulder pads are different than the horrible poorly fitted shoulder pads of the 1980s. Hope you keep and wear it. PS. I think the blue silk jacket with the yellow lining on the inside might have been a bed jacket. Maybe Thelma enjoyed some winter mornings in bed with some coffee.

[@hfsaid]

Shoulder pads come & go, like all fashion - in cycles.

[@robertaglass]

hfsaid Yes! And the shoulder pads of the 1940s were sewn in carefully and sat comfortably on your shoulders & flattered your waist. The shoulder pads of the eighties were sewn in sloppily and sat awkwardly or worse yet the pads were velcroed in!

[@doreenblatz2440]

There used to be a product called Woolite for fine washables. Haven’t looked for it for years but I’m sure there must be a product like it out there somewhere. Hand wash and hang to dry should work fine for most of your finds. Don’t use metal hangers.

[@robin2724]

Be prepared. 1950's, most fabric was Not colorfast, if it is cotton hand wash cold hang dry and iron. The majority looks like it would need careful dry cleaning, remove the brooches even if they are sewn on. Call around and tell them what you have until you find a cleaner who specializes in this type of item. Take the items in and discuss what they think will happen if cleaned. A regular cleaners will either decline to clean it or just take it and ruin it. When you find someone just get one thing cleaned to see how it comes out (not your favourite). I was born in the 1940's and my Mom sewed at home for 2 different companies. She made all our clothes, I learned to sew on her vintage Singer industrial commercial grade sewing machine, it could sew anything including heavy leather.

Great find. Your best bet, before you discard, remove buttons or wash is to contact a textile conservator for advice on the handling of the different fabrics. Even the velvets might be salvageable. If you have a local museum, they are very helpful with this sort of thing. You might also consider donating the fireman's uniform to a local historical society.

Vivian Hamilton You never know with people who save clothing for sentimental reasons. As she said what they drag out is always different than their last sale. The squeaky wheel gets oiled. I bet if she went over wearing one of the vintage dresses and started chatting with them, she might come into some more stuff. I’ve been in the business since 1986, most of my best finds came from talking with folks.

[@PaperandMoose]

The lady had 2 vintage slips, which now I wish I would have looked at because I think they were the longer kind. I have a few vintage slips, half-slips, and a "modern" full slip. The clothes were probably the oldest items at the sale. I think I just get too excited over the finds that my brain doesn't have time to catch up to remind myself to ask for additional items that I collect/see what they have. Have to remember to slow down in the future!

That’s the perfect fit. Check your thread to see if it is dry rotted. Cotton thread is what they used to sew with and it ages with time unlike the cotton coated nylon thread we use today. You need you a few basic pumps and you will be the talk of the town. On the staining on white materials, buttermilk works wonders. You soak the stains in the buttermilk and lay it in the sun. The enzymes in the buttermilk loosen up the stains. Mold can be gotten out by buttermilk also. Always, always, always keep a gallon of high percentage of vinegar to use with salt to set colors OR vinegar to remove sweat stains as well as others. My grandma used to swear by Listerine to remove the stains and odor perspiration leaves. I am so thrilled to see someone that appreciates good fashion. That’s why I want to buy the buttons you got recently. I like to use the patterns from yesteryear to make clothes for me and my two little grand daughters. I need the buttons to stay true to my passion and my heart. Thank you so much for giving me such a thrill. And the pins you were gifted to you!!! Hey I don’t need any extra help in the shoulder department so I usually remove the shoulder pads. So, so thrilled for you.

19:21 the dark blue dress, actually called midnight blue in the olden days (lol) is silk velvet not velour. Hang it up on a padded hanger or lay it down on a bed perhaps? Same with the black thin fabric jacket with the buttons too. This blue dress was a best dress worn for important events. Just lovely and a real find. It will need to be dry cleaned. If it doesn't fit this dress (if you love it) needs to be refitted for you. You couldn't buy a dress with this material now under a 1000.00 usd. The sleeveless blouses were made to go under suit jackets especially in the summer. You would remove the jacket if you were too hot, jackets on for too cold. Lord you got some absolutely wonderful things. The shoulder pads are from the 50's not the 80's and frankly are beginning to return according to the latest clothing designs. All these clothes are from the 50's including the wild flower tops...where do you think we got all those ideas? The 50's.

What a haul! Soak the stained clothes in Oxiclean mixed in a tub of water for up to a week if need be. Check them every so often. Clorox Stain Remover and Color Booster is great at removing stains that won't come out with any other method, like blood, sweat, spaghetti, rust stains. Another KZbinr who cleans vintage linens recommends washing them in Persil. I'm not sure why but I use a clothes soap for sensitive skin. Use a Color Catcher cloth in each tub that's soaking. I soak mine in the tub of my washing machine. I can do this because I've got an older machine that doesn't have a locking mechanism. I can open and close the lid at any point in the process. I soak several items at one time in that big tub, then if I think it needs to be hand washed, I will pull out, wring and place into another tub...or maybe use the rinse cycle & spin without using the agitation during the wash cycle. You should be able to save most if not all of those items, particularly that white blouse. The taffeta, satin, rayon, etc. fabrics should be dry cleaned. Don't give them away too quickly if they don't at first respond to your efforts. Some other product or tip may come your way later. That man's mother was quite the lady. She obviously liked looking nice and was thrifty, too, sewing so many of her own clothes. I do remember the days in which many economical homemakers made their own clothes. Very nice, all of it!

Fabulous find Renee! I love how the fireman uniform made you speachless💕 imagine the young man who wore it and the pride he took in wearing it💕

The coat you tried on is really cute on you. Thanks for sharing. I could feel your excitement!! Always fun to get a bargain!! The one with the fur is lovely!! You couldn't touch the fabric for one dress for what you paid for all!! The dark blue velvet is stunning!! Some stains can be removed with hydrogen peroxide, test first. Some stains are yellow from hanging and will come out with spray and wash. Be careful with dry cleaning. Some use harsh solutions and they leave residue. Some you can air first then hand was and air dry so you don't ruin. Some if the shoulder pads you can just skip out. The ones under the lining, not so easy. Good luck. Let us Know how your cleaning process goes. Thanks

I've been able to hand wash and delicate cycle some of them. No harm to the fabrics and some stains came out with the Oxi Clean. Going to do a 2nd round of cleaning/air drying to remove some of the "old" smell.

@@PaperandMoose great. Thanks for the quick reply.

Great haul! I'm excited for you! The short sleeve white shirt can be made to look like a muslin material shirt just by soaking it in strong tea water. It will blend the stains already there into the uneven colors of darker muslin. Voila! A new vintage look shirt 🤗

Congratulations! I was smiling through this entire video at your obvious delight in this find. Thank you so much for your efforts, I know you would do the hunting and thrifting anyway because it's your business. I am thanking you for sharing your joy with us. It is so nice to see someone who loves their job. 😀

Your enthusiasm is fantastic. Great finds. The fire uniform is so so cool!! Looking forward to the photo shoot!!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE ... You found the motherlode of vintage clothing and it looks as if they will all fit!!! The sparkle in your eyes, the tone of your voice and the look on your face told it all!! I was so very excited when you found the fire dept shirt with the badge!!!! I really thought that you were going to cry!! Look on the internet for people to collect and/or sell vintage clothing before you attempt on cleaning an of it. The few pieces with the mold, keep them away from the other clothing, maybe even in a large plastic bag. The blue dress is velvet (the real thing). Some of the clothing "may" have to be professionally clean but most won't. Some "may" have to be washed on a gentle cycle or by hand. One lady that I knew several years back used a cleaner that was very gentle. But I can't remember the name of it! CONGRATS on Your find!!! Would love to be a fly on the wall when you wear the 1st piece of these vintage clothing to work!!!

It's finds like this that encourage me to go out to yard sales even when I don't want to, considering most sales have more current day things. I just need to ride around and find the sales that weren't advertised in the papers - maybe they will have more of my style items! But buying all the clothes made my day, made my month!

Blue velveteen. No valour at that period in time. Also try mixing lemon juice and backing soda into a paste and apply to spots
